Dear linguists, About two weeks ago, I posted a query on two books and two articles. (1) Jespersen, Otto. A Linguist's Life.[an English translation of his autobiography] (2) Jespersen, Otto. Progress in Language. (3) Christophersen, P. 1972. "Otto Jespersen: A retrospect." Transactions of the Philological Society 1-19. (4) Haislund, Niels. "Otto Jespersen." In Thomas A. Sebeok, Portraits of Linguists. vol.2. Bloomington & London: Indiana UP., 1966: 148-57. Sebastian Adorjan Dyhr [s_adorjan_dyhrMail to author|Respond to list|Read more issues|LINGUIST home page|Top of issuehotmail.com] and Elisabeth Seitz [elisabeth.seitz
uni-tuebingen.de] have promised to mail me a copy of Jespersen's autobiography and his Progress in Language, respectively. As regards the articles, I have received them sent by Robin Thelwall [eubule
telusplanet.net] and Pam Lindell [plindell
